Penn Avenue Eyewear’s computer glasses feature lenses with a special coating that deflects a portion of the violet/blue light spectrum. Unlike other companies that offer computer glasses with yellow or amber tinted lenses to absorb blue light, our lenses feature a special coating that actually deflects the blue light off the front of the lens. Our computer glasses are made from a prescription quality 1.56 index lens and are available in plano (non-powered) or reading powers from +.25 to +1.50 in .25 increments. All lenses are clear and treated with a special coating that deflects blue light.

Wear contact lenses? The plano or the +.25 (for slight magnification) are perfect for you. Normally wear a reading glass? You’ll want to divide that power by half to come up with the perfect intermediate distance power for working on your computer.
